Abstract: A technique for identifying related transaction records from a database storing transaction records for multiple entities includes grouping transaction records with a common attribute value into transaction record sets, receiving a selection of an exemplar record set and determining the probability the transaction record set stores transaction records associated with a first entity. Other operations include resolving the transaction record set as storing transaction records associated with the first entity. This improves the process of identifying related transaction records because related transaction records missed by string comparisons transaction record attributes are detected.

Patent CA-2882635-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MOREAU THIERRY
IPC: H04L9/30
Filed: 2015-02-19
Abstract: When an organization needs to perform a critical computation, such as a public key digital signature, on which a large stakeholder community relies, it wishes to maintain a good reputation of integrity and operational discipline in internal controls. The disclosed computing device has innovative characteristics that support special work sessions or critical computation ceremonies during which many aspects of the trusted personnel involvement may be observed and audited. As a net result, the critical computation run-time instance becomes trustworthy for a large audience who might have delegated witnesses.  In contrast with the prior art HSM (hardware security module) used in similar contexts, the computing device is devoid of stored secrets and trusted personnel authorization configuration at the outset of a trusted session. Instead, the critical computation ceremony is driven by a ceremony script that anticipates every significant operations that an authorized trusted operator would have done after having been authenticated by a prior art HSM. The ceremony script itself is integrity protected based on direct observation. The disclosed invention facilitates the embedding of the complete data validations and cryptographic mechanisms required for a given IT security scheme (e.g. a security certificate digital signature application) into a single software logic implementation, further facilitating the task of auditing the complete scheme (with the prior art HSM, the host computer usage of HSM capabilities is often omitted from software logic audit). Prior to the start of a session according to a ceremony script, the computing device holds no secret data. Secrets used during a critical computation session may be input to the computing device by trusted personnel or secret portion custodians, again with an opportunity for observation by witnesses and auditors, providing data origin authentication for the secrets.  Secrets handled during a critical session are deleted from the computing device prior to the session termination and thus the computing device needs no sophisticated hardware protection mechanisms. In variants of the computing device, the opportunity for observation by witnesses and auditors may be used for data output by the critical computation run-time instance.

Title: Methods and devices for ac current sources, precision current transducers and detectors
Inventor: MILJANIC PETAR N
IPC: H03H7/00
Filed: 2015-03-20
Abstract: Precision AC voltage, current, phase, power and energy measurements and calibrations with current ranges from 1uA to 20kA and voltage ranges from 1V to 1000kV are now performed with accuracies of better than one part per million. Continued demand for improved accuracy has led the inventors to address improvements to dual stage and multi-stage current transducers that may form the basis of the measuring process within many of the measurement instruments providing the precision AC measurements and calibrations. Additionally, the improvements to dual stage and multi-stage current transducers provide for novel feedback controlled precision AC current sources without requiring measurement of the AC current source output directly.
